BEST MEATBALLS IN TOWN "NEW YORK TOWN"






The big question? Where to get the Best Meatballs in town, the town of New York City? I can easily answer that, and "It's Not The Meatball Shop" which no self-respecting Italian would be caught dead in. Not more than once anyway. Once to check it out. It's OK, but it's a rip-off and if you're looking for any kind of Italian feel, as the Big Boys would say "Fugg-etta-bout It!!!" The Meatball Shop is for non-Italians, those not fortunate to have a mother, Nonna, and Aunts that make Meatballs that would blows those of The Meatball Shop right out of the water. My Nonna, Aunt Fran, Aunt Helen, "the Best Meatballs you could ever wish to Imagine." But poor you if you're not Italian and you have to go to such a poor substitute as The Meatball Shop. If you really want great meatballs, The Best In New York as-a-matter-of-fact, go to where the late Great Frank Sinatra went, and head over to West 56th Street to Patsy's ... It was Frank Sinatra's all-time favorite. He ate there many times over the years. Patsy's is wonderful, with; great ambiance, real Italian American Food, The Best Meatballs in Town, and the spirit of one Francis Albert Sinatra, "Frank."

La TAVOLA "A MUST READ"


 As I've said and written before, Daniel makes probably the finest Bolognese Sauce in the country, among other dishes. Daniel besides creating America's first ever Venetian Wine Bar, has now created and given America another great wonder, in his marvelous new book "La Tavola" Italian-American New Yorkers Adventures of The Table, a wonderful book with wondrous stories of Sunday Sauce, Meatball Parms, The Feast of The 7 Fish and much more. La Tavola is one of the finest books ever written on Italian-American Food and Cuisine, with some excellent wine info and stories as well.
    This book take the read on a journey through the Italian-American culinary world; the Food, Cooking, people, and time spent at the table with wonderful stories of all the great dishes, rituals, and the realm of Italian America.
    This book is a "Must Read" for anyone interested in Italian food and food in general.
